My dog has been walked several times by Connie and it’s been nothing short of quality and attention to detail. And she’s such a fantastic dog person, Jake just loves seeing her.

I left my pups for the first time on a long trip. They usually travel with me. Dominique made sure to treat them like I do. They were loved and cared for and I was able to enjoy my trip. Most thankful for her!!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I have grown up with dogs, and love all dogs. Neighbors and family members have relied on me to take care of their dogs. This includes feeding, exercising, medication and play time! I am experienced with handling puppies and with senior dogs as well. I currently don’t have any other commitments, so I have plenty of time to play and take care of your doggies! I’m available Sunday through Saturday all day and or night. I will follow set instructions if you have any in regards to being in your home. Otherwise, I will care for your beloved puppy like they are my own and use my judgment.

Adrienne is thoughtful and caring and very very good at communicating. This is my 3rd time leaving my dog (a somewhat demanding pug) in her care. It will certainly not be our last.

Erika had to be the best dog walker I’ve ever had. I would honestly, never want to use anyone else. I had a trip out of town that ended up having multiple flight delays and cancellations. I ended up having to extend the care last minute — she graciously worked with me on a moments notice. She was very polite and charismatic at meet and greet, took phenomenal care of Athena, was constantly quick to respond, kept me updated, sent photos, had full flexibility. She also helped work through any logistic issues efficiently and empathetically. My electronic lock to front door broke due to battery and she was at leasing office first thing, handling the situation for me. She made sure it was fixed and reassured me through my travels. She took my trash out. Left a thank you card. From start to finish she went above and beyond. It honestly felt like she treated my dog and home as her own, which is rare to find in sitters. Tremendous dog care provider. Would highly, highly recommend.

First would like to say great app it was my first time ever using an application like this. Second, Jennifer was great with zoro as a new puppy he is a handful, but Jennifer was able to walk and play with zoro. She was even able to clean his mess and provide water for zoro.

About: I have taken care of dogs of all sizes, as well as a few cats, for years in a more casual setting. I usually sit for friends, family friends, and neighbors, usually through check-ins, and only a few times with boarding in my own home. I have two dogs of my own, ages 5 and 9mo who were both raised from puppies, so I have basic puppy training and grooming skills. I also have experience with dogs who need regular medication or who have specialized/specific diets. I am open to caring for any pets except birds, special needs/sensitive reptiles, and insects. I am currently a student at Penn State and I am looking for summer job in my hometown. I would most likely be free at almost any time during the week and would be open to over night stays as well with prior notice. I would be open to set a meeting with you and your pet before house sitting or check-in dates to discuss schedules and specifics as well as to meet your pet. I am currently unable to sit at my own house. My contact info will be provided and I will be available for call at all points during my care for your pet.

About: My family and friends have entrusted me to take care of their pets many times these last few years. The last 3 summers I have been lucky enough to do long-term stays with my friend's 4 dogs and cat to help build my experience with pets. Additionally, my family has 2 Rhodesian Ridgebacks of our own, so I am no stranger to larger dogs! I am currently working part-time on the weekends so my week is normally pretty free. Since I am an incoming college student, I have some commitments throughout the summer, but have no problem talking about those with clients! I will treat your pets as if they were my own and make them as comfortable as possible while you are away. I know it can be a stressful time for them while your gone, so I hope to be a calming presence where they can relax and have fun!

About: I grew up with my own beloved dog and cat, and have always enjoyed taking care of others. I'm happy to offer regular dog walking services to keep your furry friend happy and active. I’m currently working part-time, so please let me know prior! I mostly work evening shifts so I am available most mornings. Again, please let me know prior. I don’t offer services at my house, but if I had to, I have a perfectly fenced back yard. My house is very safe.

About: Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s something I truly love. I’m the proud mom of Tchoupi, my sweet 8-year-old Pomeranian who has been my loyal companion since she was a puppy. She’s like a daughter to me, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love and attention. I’m home 24/7, so your dog will never be left alone and will get plenty of care, cuddles, and company throughout the day. I also occasionally help care for my daughters’ two puppies, so I’m very comfortable with dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves playtime or just wants to relax in a calm space, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. With me, your dog will be treated like family from the moment they arrive. I would like to take care of dogs, when one needs. I am dependable, gentle, and attentive to each dog’s unique needs, whether it involves feeding, grooming, exercising, or simply spending time with them to ensure they feel safe and loved. I love dogs and I ll be happy to take care of them. I have had a special bond with animals—especially dogs. Their unconditional love, intelligence, and sensitivity inspire me every day. I normally take care of my dog and my daughter’s dogs since 8 years with my dogs and one year with my daughter’s puppies in week ends.

About: Hi, I’m Eileen. I provide gentle, attentive care for small dogs, with a focus on safety, routine, and a calm home environment. My availability is primarily weekends, holidays, and selected weekday evenings, which allows me to give each dog steady, unhurried attention. I tailor care to each pup’s personality, whether that means relaxed walks, light play, quiet companionship, or simply keeping their routine familiar and reassuring. I follow feeding and medication instructions carefully, keep bowls and rest areas clean, and send thoughtful updates with photos so you can feel fully at ease. Because I have resident cats, I’m best suited for cat-savvy small dogs. I approach introductions slowly, supervise carefully, and can keep spaces separate when needed. My style is warm, detail-oriented, and intentionally limited in volume, so each dog receives the same thoughtful care I would want for my own pets. 🕰️ Schedule I work a full-time 9–5 role during weekdays, and I thoughtfully plan my pet care visits around that schedule to ensure each visit is calm, unhurried, and consistent. On weekdays, I offer evening drop-in visits, which tend to be a natural and comforting time for most cats, which is quiet, predictable, and aligned with their evening routines. On weekends and holidays, I’m available between 10am–5pm, with more flexibility to match your cat’s preferred schedule. At home, I care for my own five cats every day, so multi-cat routines, different personalities, and maintaining a clean, peaceful environment are already part of my daily life. When I visit your home, I bring that same level of attentiveness—never rushed, always respectful of your cat’s pace and space. I also keep my bookings intentionally limited so each cat receives steady, thoughtful care. Whether your cat needs quiet companionship, playtime, or medication, I make sure every visit feels consistent and reassuring for both you and your cat. My primary service is caring for cats in their own home, where many feel safest and most relaxed. I follow your instructions closely, from feeding and medication to doors, windows, lights, and entry routines. I know how much trust it takes to leave your cat and home in someone else’s care, so I treat both with great respect and attention. Each visit is tailored to your cat’s personality and your preferences. Some cats want play and affection, while others prefer quiet company and space. I pay close attention to food, water, litter box habits, and any small changes in behavior. After every visit, I send thoughtful updates with photos, videos, and a clear report, so you can feel informed and at ease while you’re away. If I ever care for a cat in my home, I would focus on slow introductions, separated food, close monitoring, and a calm, clean environment. My five resident cats are all up to date on rabies and FVRCP vaccines, and I always respect each cat’s pace and comfort level.

Connie was the best!! I just got my pup from a shelter and he was a big boy with lots of energy and very little training. Connie took the time address issues he was struggling with in training and still make sure he was getting the exercise he needed. You can tell how much love she has for the dogs she works with. I definitely will be booking with Connie in the future.

Simply a fantastic dog walker! She was available for my last minute request. Not only did Ashley walk my dog she also did extra, added more food, stimulated my dogs mind with a brain puzzle food game, changed her water and even made sure my fur baby didn't mess the floor. I am beyond satisfied. She was very caring, respectful and just overall trustworthy and on time. I would definitely recommend Ashley to anyone in need.
